MLS Cup has come and gone – Seattle beat Toronto, 3-1, for their second title in four years – and clubs around the league (including expansion sides Inter Miami and Nashville SC) already have the 2020 season on their minds.
The race for 2020 MLS Cup begins on Monday, as a two-day trade window opens at 1 pm ET. The window allows teams to sign and trade players following a 10-week roster freeze. The window will stay open until 8 pm ET on Wednesday. You can check out the entire offseason calendar here.
